Everyone present was shocked, they didn't expect that this Li Yan looked gentle and elegant, and he was so ruthless when he started to do things, and he was really a thief!

"General Li Yan, isn't that good?"

Gu Yanwu frowned and said, "There are more than 200 people in this prison of the Criminal Department, and 300 people are killed?" The punishment is too severe, it is not a blessing of the state, and the killing is too heavy, and it will also affect the reputation of the Overseer......"

Li Yan smiled and said, "Brother Ningren, how can this affect the prestige of adults? You must know that the adults are dealing with people who deserve it, these people are national moths, who live a free life by sucking the blood of ordinary people and soldiers, and dispose of them, so they are really happy, and everyone expects them! As for saying that the criminal law is too harsh, I didn't say that they should all be killed, but I just want them to be exiled to Qiongzhou or Annan, as long as they don't stay in Nanjing or Nanzhili, we must ensure that the three towns of Nanjing will still be able to guarantee that they have strong combat power in the future, even if they are not under the direct control of adults, which undoubtedly requires the superior position of the soldiers of the Tianwei Army! ”

Gu Yanwu looked stunned, he was full of poetry and books, he had never been in officialdom, let alone in such a harsh environment as breaking into the camp, naturally he could not have such rich experience and means as Li Yan, and he lacked an intuitive understanding of the cruelty of politics, which was inevitably a little broad.

Zhu Jie nodded and said: "Brother Li Yan is right, once the power is in hand, he will carry out the order, if you don't seize the opportunity of this short few days, when the will arrives in the future, it will be difficult to do, Brother Fu, the evidence of these people's greed for military salaries has been collected, and the evidence of instigating a mutiny is ready-made, and you still need to cooperate with the Criminal Department to do it quickly......"

Yang Tingshu nodded and said: "My lord, don't worry, this matter has been handed over to the lower officials, with me and Shi Butang here, there will be no chaos!" ”

Zhu Jie sneered: "Of the three hundred or so people, at least more than a hundred will be cut down, and the remaining less than a hundred will be exiled to Qiongzhou, Annan, and Yunnan, all of them will be scattered, even if they want to get them back, it will not be so easy for them!" ”

It is related to the actual control of the three towns of Nanjing, Zhu Jie has to be ruthless now, after all, Hong Chengchou is also in a big disaster, without him in Manchuria to ventilate the news, it will be even more difficult to face the Manchurian Eight Banners in the future, just a Tianwei army, the combat power is not enough, in the future, the three towns of Nanjing will also be the main force to encircle and suppress the Manchurian Eight Banners!

Qin Mufeng said in a deep voice on the side: "My lord, if you want to control the three towns of Nanjing, it is not so difficult, I and Cha Zhu are all brought out by you, one person is in charge of one town, and there are so many Tianwei brothers joining, at most one month, we can control the situation, even if the new garrison takes office, we can only sigh in vain, even if Zhong Yue is that guy, now he has already expressed his intention to follow the adult, with his original prestige and qualifications in Nanjing Fourteen Guards, control the front town of Nanjing, effortlessly, The only question now is not whether we can control the three towns of Nanjing, but how we can restore the combat strength of the three towns of Nanjing, which is not a simple matter......

Zhu Jie looked at Qin Mufeng in surprise and asked, "Mufeng, this is not like what you said, no confidence?" ”

Qin Mufeng smiled bitterly: "That's not it, my lord, you taught our brothers' skills by hand, can you still believe it?" Now that the recruitment of new recruits is nearing the end, there are three more days, we can recruit enough troops, our biggest problem now is not that there is no one, not that the brothers can't do it, but that we don't have enough weapons and equipment, even if we count those weapons that are no different from burning sticks, they are about to be unable to fit one person and one weapon, how can we train? The gun breaks when it shakes, the knife breaks when it is chopped, and there are few three-eyed eyes that can be fired, artillery? Hehe, there is already a thick layer of rust in the barrel of the cannon, not to mention the Manchurian elite, even if they go to the camp, they are definitely meat buns and dogs......"

Zhu Jie frowned, over the years, the 14th Guard of Nanjing has really been a mess tossed by this group of people, whether it is a cold weapon or a hot weapon, it is so useless, how to fight?

Qin Mufeng continued: "This is not the most serious, the most serious is the war horse, the Nanjing Fourteenth Guard claims to have tens of thousands of cavalry and more than 10,000 war horses, what is the result?" The cavalry can't even get together 3,000 people, and the war horses are less than 4,000, and some of the war horses are too old to move, it is estimated that these cavalry are not as fast as the infantry of our Tianwei Army, the three towns of Nanjing, even 3,000 cavalry, not 2,000 elite cavalry can't get together, my lord, what do you think I can do with the bolt......

What to do?

Zhu Jie is also starting to smack his teeth fiercely now......

Shi Kefa said with a smile on the side: "Lord Qin, don't worry about this, the ordnance and firearms of the Fourteenth Guard of Nanjing are indeed not the same, but among the arsenals under the Arsenal of our Nanjing Military Department, there are armaments, although there are not many firearms, but there are knives, guns, swords, halberds, bows, crossbows, feathers and arrows, a few days ago, Zuo Xiaoqing, the squire of the Ministry of War, just counted that there are no less than 20,000 steel knives and no less than 40,000 spears; There are 12,000 bows, 200,000 feather arrows, and thousands of other three-eyed eyes, more than 30 artillery pieces, and hundreds of shells! It's enough for the three towns of Nanjing! ”

Zhu Jie took a deep breath and said slowly: "Tell the War Bureau and the Firearms Bureau to do their best to produce and build ordnance and firearms, ask for money and money, materials for materials, and people for people, in a word, I only need ordnance and firearms, give them half a year's time, and must give me 20,000 fine iron steel knives, 20,000 spears, 10,000 bows, and 100,000 feather arrows!" Firearms are given priority to build and supply, with no less than 5,000 flintlock muskets, 100,000 projectiles, 50 red cannons, and 1,000 shells! Starting tomorrow, the Arsenal Clearance Division of the Ministry of War will begin to allocate ordnance and firearms to the three towns of Nanjing, and replace all those unqualified broken knives and guns for me! ”

Bi Dengfu on the side grinned when he heard this, as soon as he took office, Zhu Jie had already thrown down the most difficult task, my God, in half a year, to build so many ordnance and firearms, even if the people from the War Bureau and the Firearms Bureau rotated together, they might not be able to make it in a hurry......

"Master Overseer, are you in a hurry? Now there is a serious shortage of craftsmen in the War Bureau and the Firearms Bureau, and it is almost impossible to complete the tasks you deployed on time, and the pressure is too great......"

Bi Dengfu smiled bitterly.
